Orta makes a mark with its sustainable cotton and denim dyeing process

Demand is growing around the world for Orta Anadolu’s sustainable cotton fabrics. The company has been increasing its use of Better Cotton, which now accounts for five per cent of its total cotton consumption. Orta Anadolu is a Turkish denim fabric manufacturer.

If a fabric from Orta Anadolu is labeled as Better Cotton, this means that 100 per cent of the fiber composition is Better Cotton. The company also uses organic cotton, which accounts for three per cent of its overall cotton use.

Demand is growing around the world for Orta’s sustainable cotton fabrics. Its main markets are the US and Europe and now Chinese brands are also interested in recycled fabrics and Better Cotton.

Another key focus for Orta is the dyeing of its denim fabric. Its Indigo Flow process reduces water use by up to 70 per cent compared with standard dyeing processes, resulting in cleaner, better dye penetration and less oxygen-stress in the wastewater. Indigo Flow is unique to Orta and is a more sustainable method of indigo dyeing, resulting in cleaner waste water, no salt formation and less chemical use. The process has 60 per cent less biological oxygen demand and chemical oxygen demand than other processes.
